Java Programming/Keywords/extends

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

extends is a Java keyword.

Used in class and interface definition to declare the class or interface that is to be extended.

Syntax:

Computer code
publicclass MyClassextendsSuperClass
{
//...
}

publicinterface MyInterfaceextendsSuperInterface
{
//...
}


In Java 1.5 and later, the "extends" keyword is also used to specify an upper bound on a type parameter in Generics.

Computer code
class Foo<TextendsNumber>{/*...*/}
